"Hera Gallery is pleased to feature the exhibition“Self Portraits: Under My Skin”, photographs by Amanda Swain Bingham, on display from June 21st until July 19th, 2014.

Of this body of photographic work, Amanda states, “For the past four years I have been working on a series of self-portraits using shadow and reflection. I like to think of these photographs as drawings. Both mediums speak to my need to depict and record. I deliberately improvise and arrange. I want my shadows and reflections to roam in unselfconscious form. They venture under my skin and explore my vulnerability, disengaged from our cultural obsession with identity and beauty. I get to redefine what I am made of, and water is my mirror."

"Hera Gallery is pleased to feature the exhibition“Old World”, photographs by Viera Levitt, on display from June 21st until July 19th, 2014.“Old World” presents photographs taken during several trips to a once vibrant, now abandoned sugar mill in Trnava, Slovakia. This important landmark was built in 1868 but was forced to close down in 2004, a victim of capitalism's economic reality.

Privatized and repeatedly imagined as cultural and/or commercial space, the mill continues to sit, unused and decaying near the historical center of this walled city. Huge dystopian spaces and ghosts of everyday use allow this former beet sugar factory to be the perfect subject for Viera's large format digital photographs."

This summer, Hera will hold its Fourth Annual Postcard Fundraiser! We are exhibiting “postcard” sized original works of art to sell for benefit of the gallery and the Domestic Violence Resource Center of South County.

Hera Gallery is pleased to feature the exhibition “Imagined Landscapes” by Roberta Richman on view from August 31 to October 5, 2013. Opening reception: Saturday, Sept 7th, 6 to 8pm
As Richman states, “Landscape has inspired my work for as long as I can remember. Looking at horizons, fields, marshland, dunes and beginning new work with a particular place in mind is how I have always moved from a white sheet of paper to the first of many stages of the original image. My affinity to natural landscape has not changed but over time my expression of it has. This show includes two distinct groups of work that are obviously different.

Hera Gallery is pleased to feature the exhibition "Haiku", by Jeannette Jacobs on view from August 31 to October 5, 2013.
Opening reception: Saturday, Sept 7th, 6 to 8pm

Jeannette Jacobs has made over 100 originally designed quilts and enjoys the process immensely. As Jacobs states, “When I work on a quilt, I put away all thoughts that are not helpful and direct my energies towards relaxing and focusing. I work intuitively. I begin to see shapes in my head and think about how to cut them out of the huge palette of colors and patterns that I have in my fabrics. I have learned not to think about what others expect or what will sell, but rather I look at my time in my studio as a process of discovery. I love being inside my brain and pushing myself to think in ever more varied ways because I know the ideas are there for the taking. It’s all about being focused and disciplined. Being alone, in my studio allows me to, what I call, be in the zone.”

This summer, Hera will hold its third annual postcard fundraiser! We are seeking artists’ postcards created as original works of art to sell at $15 each for benefit of the gallery. Postcards will be displayed in the gallery from July 17-20, 2013. Postcards will be accepted on a rolling basis. The deadline for inclusion in the show is Friday July 12

Alexandra Broches: The Garden
April 6th – May 4th, Opening Reception: Saturday, April 6th, 6 – 8 pm
As Alexandra Broches states, she “Returns again and again to the garden as subject matter, from the small urban front yards, to parks, cemeteries, memorials and other managed landscapes on a larger scale.
These photographs explore what a garden is and what the garden has meant at various times in history, how societies relate to and live in nature. They reflect the ways people bring plant life and the act of growing things into their lives for survival and pleasure, for food and for spiritual and creative expression.”Read more on our blog!Alexandra Broches will have a Gallery Talk at Hera on Saturday, May, 4th at 6:00pm!

Michael Yefko: Repeat Repeat
April 6th – May 4th; Opening Reception: Saturday, April 6th, 6 –8 pm
“Repeat Repeat” is a conceptual installation of sculpture, painting, and drawing that explores the repeating moves made by an artist.
Responding to the geometric patterns in movement, culture and environmental systems, Yefko is drawn to the repeating rhythms of life in all its complexities. For Yefko, repeating marks, shapes, and color act as metaphors for breath, recovery, desire, and cultural patterns. “Repeating oneself is as essential as breathing,” says Yefko.

This exhibition focuses on the role landscape architects play in solving major problems in our world, and highlights the design process
they utilize in order to do so.
The pieces in this exhibition focus on the development of this approach to design, incorporating projects from academics, students,
and professionals. The uniting concepts illustrated in Design For
Change are articulated in the preliminary sketches, drawings, drafts,
models, and photographs that each participant has contributed.
Facebook Event Page: http://www.facebook.com/events/121433788004756/

In this exhibition, Barbara Pagh will bring together a selection of work from several related series of prints. Landscape has been a
dominant theme in her work for the past twenty years. There is no
attempt to create a realistic representation of place, but a
subjective impression based on structure and color and resulting in a layering of texture and form. Pagh often incorporates images of close
textural details and natural objects. Although taken from a
photograph, the resulting abstraction encourages the viewer to look at
the landscape in a new way. More info in our blog.

Myron previously worked as a graphic designer, and created art for years with traditional media, with a focus on canvas, oil and mixed media. Over the last few years he has embraced his digital skills, searching for the convergence of traditional painting, photography and the virtual world of computing. Incorporating today's technology with traditional painting on canvas has led to a very personal form of computer generated art. More info in our blog.

Our new home, 10 High Street, Wakefield, RI is still in the process of being renovated to become a gallery space. In order to present our
exhibitions properly we needed to install LED track lighting, signage
and other improvements to make the space Hera Gallery. To help with
these costs, Hera has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise money
to best showcase our summer exhibitions in our new space.

With your help, this one time cost will help us continue to bring challenging artwork, exhibitions, and events to southern Rhode Island. Here is the link to our project, Hera Gallery Heats Up with Summer
Art.

of the property, we have had to say goodbye to our building of more than
thirty years on Main Street in Wakefield. When construction is completed,
we hope to return to this location. While two years without a home is
a significant loss, we also view it as a great opportunity to try new
things. Our partnership with Bagelz of Wakefield to show the art of Hera
Members in the Meeting Room Gallery is one such undertaking.
